Ingredients

• 2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 (8 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
• 0.75 cup white sugar
• 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
• 0.5 cup fresh lime juice
• 1.5 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat cream in a small saucepan until small bubbles appear around the edges. Remove from the heat and stir in sugar until it dissolves. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and allow to cool, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Blend avocado and cream cheese in a food processor until smooth. Add lime juice and process until smooth.

Step 3

Whisk blended avocado mixture into cooled cream mixture, then pour into an ice cream maker. Freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes.

Step 4

Spoon avocado mixture into the prepared pie crust; smooth the surface with a spatula. Freeze until solid, at least 2 hours. Let cheesecake sit at room temperature until slightly softened yet firm enough to slice before serving, 10 to 15 minutes.
